Examples
f(x)=4xf(x)=4x , g(x)=3x+1
Step 1
Step 1.1
Replace the function designators with the actual functions in f(x)-gx.
4x-(3x+1)
Step 1.2
Simplify each term.
Step 1.2.1
Apply the distributive property.
4x-(3x)-1⋅1
Step 1.2.2
Multiply 3 by -1.
4x-3x-1⋅1
Step 1.2.3
Multiply -1 by 1.
4x-3x-1
4x-3x-1
Step 1.3
Subtract 3x from 4x.
x-1
x-1
Step 2
The domain of the expression is all real numbers except where the expression is undefined. In this case, there is no real number that makes the expression undefined.
